Honestly, this baked oatmeal has been my to-go meal for weeks now because I have been craving savory for breakfast, so I came up with this “genius” idea: combining two of my favorite foods into a single recipe: Vegan Pizza Savory Baked oatmeal!

This is an easy no-fuss recipe that you can play around with as you’d like. Feel free to make it spicy by adding some crushed red pepper. I call for garlic powder, fresh basil, and dried thyme here to keep it classically “pizza,” but any other dried Italian herb mix will do. This one really gives you the same satisfaction as a naughty slice of pizza for breakfast but other than pizza, it is so filling! No sugar in this baked oatmeal, should you want to cut down on that after the holidays. I know it sounds odd but you’ve gotta try this recipe.
